'Ello there! I'm Alison. I'm a more of a children's illustrator, but like to do more realism to keep fresh.

I got a tablet hee! No more laptop track pad for me. Well, a new medium to play around with. Yep yep.

Hey there. Thanks for your comment in the Critique Center on the troll illustration. I hope you enjoy the tablet. One thing that's odd with them at first is just the slick feel of the surface. Some people tape a piece of paper on top of them to get that feeling.

Good work on the anatomy studies so far, and I like your cartooning style too. I think you've got a good handle on contours so far, so it would be good if you posted some pieces with more shading and volume. The frog duchess is the strongest in that direction, but even it could go further. (I like the fly on the dinner plate, btw. And cleavage on a frog... *snort*)

**LordLouis** · June 9th, 2011, 03:33 AM

Hey there, just spotted you in the Critique Centre and because I like your avatar so much, I thought I give your sb a try!

I really like your children's illustration works, as I have a thing for those

Your life drawing is badass! What course are you doing at school? Anyway I think you need to post more things in here, fill it moar, moaar!

Cheers

Nice sketchbook! Snail lady will probably haunt my dreams now.

Her upper arms seem a bit long to me, though.

Re. earlier work: is that mug cake/cupcake-in-a-mug?

**Alison B.** · June 9th, 2011, 08:09 AM

@LordLouis
Thanks! Most of the life drawing was from my sophomore life-drawing class. I'm out of school now, so life drawing is coming very slow. I have to find someplace in the area where I can go practice.

@habrok
it's a cake in a mug, but it's in the mug because it was falling apart and i needed to paint it.
